Trump settles lawsuit over inauguration funds spent at his D.C. hotel


Donald Trump's company and inauguration committee agreed Tuesday to pay $750,000 to the District of Columbia to resolve allegations that they illegally misused nonprofit funds while staging events surrounding Trump's inauguration.

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine had accused the Trump Organization of overcharging Trump's inauguration committee for services at the Trump International Hotel, where more than $1 million was spent in January 2017, including for a private party for Mr. Trump's three older children.

"After he was elected, one of the first actions Donald Trump took was illegally using his own inauguration to enrich his family. We refused to let that corruption stand," Racine said in a press release. "With our lawsuit, we are now clawing back money that Trump's own inaugural committee misused."


Part of the reason Cheeto didn't sign the required transition ethics pledge was so he could raise unaccounted for, unlimited amounts of money for the inauguration. Cuz he just doesn't like playing by the rules.........or by the laws of the land. When he breaks them he gets his judges, and justices, to cover for him.

He's moving the funds from the inaugural account into his PAC, which he uses as his personal slush fund.

Millions of dollars this time, not just a few hundred thousand.

I suspect we will see this and more, but who knows. We'll probably see the Air Force go back to use layovers at Trump hotels again.
 
He might.
I already know the answer, but no problem with this?

I admit he's committed worse crimes, but............

Well, that's one mighty fine whataboutism but it doesn't really address trump's criminality.

Is this the fine you spoke of?

The Federal Election Commission has agreed to a fine of over $100,000 against the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign over an investigation into alleged misreporting of spending related to the now-infamous Steele dossier.
